Cool Stuff II: lenta.ru. Probably the coolest portal on the planet, right now.
Yup, it’s kind of hard to understand “конкурса Мисс Вселенная - 2010”, except for the 2010 bit.
If the previous is just mumbo jumbo in your browser, you may need to install some Cyrillic typeface on your system. Not that it makes any difference; Russian is still Chinese to the majority of us, right?
Let me help you out: it’s about just another Miss Universe contest; this time the Mexican beauty Jimena Navarrete turned out to be the winner.
The site also reports that Donald Trump is suing the organizers of this Vilnius.ru MU event, for being “non-offical”. Nothing will happen, of course, but I still wonder what maffia.ru will be thinking about that.
If you don't speak Rusky (and who does?) you might want to call in Google Translate and copy/paste the lenta.ru URL, which renders this site more than understandable.
Obviously, machine translation may generate hilarious topic titles like this one: In the Leningrad region of the psychiatric hospital fled the world champion on fights without rules, which is just another reason to love this site.
You won't believe the kind of stuff you encounter on this, the (IMVHO) ultimate portal.
At posting time – for example – you could find anything from the “liquidation” of the Moscow Metro Bomber to the afore mentioned Boobie contest, and anything in between: litigation over a dead orca in Sea World, WikiLeaks’ “Afghan Brief”, Germans dying on the Eiger, Putin making promises (again), bankruptcy of a Moscow bank, Pamela Anderson on the PETA campaign and prices (in rubles) for a new Toyota cross-over.
Still not happy? Punch a side-bar link and get anything from America, Finance, Crime and Media to the Internet, Technology, Brad Pitt and U2, plus the very few things left in between.
I could spend the day at this place. Unfortunately, I have to try to make a living AND write a blog. (With the making-a-living-part you can help, btw, just click the “donate” link :))
I keep telling myself that Brad Pitt’s life is a lot easier, but I could be wrong...

Thanks for the correction, Adam. Slip of the pen ;)
sewing = suing.
